Ali Zafar to release PSL 2 anthem, says it’s an honour for him




KARACHI: Pakistan’s rock star Ali Zafar is all set to release official national anthem of Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2017’s on January 1.

The anthem titled Ab Khel Jamay Ga will be the second composition of the singer.

Zafar said he was honoured to have been chosen to write, compose and perform the anthem again. And he was aware of higher expectations this time around.

“After last time’s phenomenal response I assume the expectations will be much higher this year. Therefore I have tried to make a song that’s fun, and not only celebrates the success of last year’s achievement but also anticipates what’s in store for the year to come,” the Rockstar singer said.

When the 36-year-old was asked about the lack of patriotic music, he replied, “We need to re-energise a lot of things, including music.”

Until now, the official PSL Facebook page has shared two teasers of the song. In one, Zafar said he has composed a different tune this time. “Last time, it was just the beginning. This time, it’s a bigger celebration.” He ends by saying, “This time it’s going to be bigger, better and brighter, more fun, more exciting.”
